Previously there has been no reason to context-allocate the receiver, so
access to the receiver always goes through the stack. This was failing
with generators, which assumed that forcing context allocation would
relieve the need of storing anything but the context and the function on
the stack.
This CL adds a slot in generator objects to capture the receiver, and
restores it when resuming a generator.

This patchset begins by adding support for "yield", which is unlike other tokens
in JS. In a generator, whether strict or classic, it is a syntactic keyword.
In classic mode it is an identifier. In strict mode it is reserved.
This patch adds YIELD as a token to the scanner, and adapts the preparser and
parser appropriately. It also parses "function*", indicating that a function is
actually a generator, for both eagerly and lazily parsed functions.
Currently "yield" just compiles as "return".

Zapping is required since transition arrays contain weak references to maps: At the end of a GC cycle, ClearNonLiveTransitions removes references to dead maps from transition arrays. If a marked transition array with weak (dead) references is replaced by another transition array before the end of the GC cycle, dead references are not removed from the replaced transition array. If the replaced transition array is kept alive by a handle, marking will crash when trying to mark the first reference to a dead map.

Since symbols and strings share a common representation, most of this change is about consistently replacing 'String' with 'Name' in all places where property names are expected. In particular, no new logic at all is necessary for maps, property dictionaries, or transitions. :) The only places where an actual case distinction is needed have to do with generated type checks, and with conversions of names to strings (especially in logger and profiler).
Left in some TODOs wrt to the API: interceptors and native getters don't accept symbols as property names yet, because that would require extending the external v8.h.

- Add --harmony-symbols flag.
- Add Symbol constructor; allow symbols as (unreplaced) return value from constructors.
- Introduce %CreateSymbol and %_IsSymbol natives and respective instructions.
- Extend 'typeof' code generation to handle symbols.
- Extend CompareIC with a UNIQUE_NAMES state that (uniformly) handles internalized strings and symbols.
- Property lookup delegates to SymbolDelegate object for symbols, which only carries the toString method.
- Extend Object.prototype.toString to recognise symbols.
Per the current draft spec, symbols are actually pseudo objects that are frozen with a null prototype and only one property (toString). For simplicity, we do not treat them as proper objects for now, although typeof will return "object". Only property access works as if they were (frozen) objects (via the internal delegate object).

The new instance type 'Symbol' represents ES6 symbols (a.k.a. private/unique names). Currently, symbols are simple data objects that only carry a hash code, random-generated upon allocation.
The new type 'Name' now serves as the common super class for strings and symbols, and is supposed to represent property names. We will eventually migrate APIs from String to Name for the standard key type.
Strings and symbols share the same hash field representation, via the Name class. This way, we should be able to use the same code paths for symbols and internalized strings in most cases. Also, Symbol's instance type code is allocated adjacent to internalized string codes in the enum, allowing a simple range check for the common case.

in preparation of the introduction of ES6 'symbols' (aka private/unique names).
The SymbolTable became the StringTable. I also made sure to adapt all comments. The only remaining use of the term "symbol" (other than unrelated uses in the parser and such) is now 'NewSymbol' in the API and the 'V8.KeyedLoadGenericSymbol' counter, changing which might break embedders.
The one functional change in this CL is that I removed the former 'empty_string' constant, since it is redundant given the 'empty_symbol' constant that we also had (and both were used inconsistently).

transitioned from a map with a different descriptor array (or has no back
pointer), mark all valid descriptors from the start.
This fixes the following memory leak: Map A shares a descriptor array
with map B. Map B adds constant function c that in its scope holds on to
an instance of B. If the descriptor array of A would keep all the shared
descriptors alive, including c, this keeps alive both A and c
indefinitely.
This CL also fixes a bug in descriptor array trimming. When trimming
descriptor arrays we need to trim off the slack as well (thus the entire
storage); and since we are trimming a descriptor array, we need to trim
* kDescriptorSize.
